Notice of Temporary Suspension for Binance US Stock Trading
Binance has announced a temporary suspension of its US stock trading services for a scheduled system upgrade. This maintenance is coordinated with its brokerage partners to enhance backend infrastructure and service capabilities.
Scheduled Maintenance Window
The system upgrade is set to begin at 18:50 (UTC+8) on September 12, 2026, and is expected to conclude by 21:30 on the same day. The total downtime is estimated to be approximately 2 hours and 40 minutes.
Impact on Users and Key Points
During this maintenance period, all US stock trading functionalities will be temporarily unavailable. Specifically:
- Users will not be able to place new buy or sell orders for stocks.
- Existing pending orders will not be executed during the outage.
- Access to US stock portfolio and asset details may be limited.
Traders with plans involving US stocks are advised to adjust their strategies accordingly, either before the maintenance window or after service resumes. Other trading services, such as cryptocurrency trading, are expected to operate normally.
